Many say that their lives are open books. But when you think about it, even open books can rarely be understood. There are symbols, context and style hidden beneath the prose. And what is an open book but an invitation to confusion.
And yet… we allow… other people to read the words….
Hoping that someone, someday…
Will look between the lines and see
The pictures, the emotions
The lives and the loss
Of words
Of sight
Of darkness
Of light
For what are words
If not the feeble attempt
Of inadequate humanity
To bring order
To a world of chaos

Random: A drabble
I walk quietly in the darkness
Trying to be silent
But not succeeding
For the silence only makes
The pounding of my heart louder
Every step that I take
I trod upon
The adamant ground
Pushing me
Towards my destination
I go on despite the trepidation
Which, like the bars
Within a dungeon
Try to imprison me
Be still my heart
And give not away
The inchoate purpose
Which pounds within you
Be still my heart
And hold your beat
Though stealth be
The cost of life
I pay it gladly
For no purpose
Is more vital
Than my desires
